PS- New York, thanks for your hospitality. In honor of you, I am including a YouTube video of NYC from Annie. In my imagination, it’s being performed by Derek Jeter and Nick Swisher. But you’re not in my imagination. I still think you’ll see the resemblance.

10:48. Okay. It is too late. The governor is coming tomorrow. I have to tour a new ASU facility. I have to finalize Sunday centerpiece. I have things to do.

I am not going to watch this whole game.

I am not.

But damnit, Josh Beckett! Did you not hear the GREAT THINGS I said about you? Don’t, don’t, don’t let me down.

Do you want to SHARE the top with the Stanks, Josh? Because it gets awfully crowded up there.

FIX IT.

11:05. Did you know the guitar strings on today’s version of Google make noise? Seriously. Go to google.com right now. FDA showed me this and now I can’t stop. I can play Silent Night. And part of the Beauty and the Beast theme song. Angela Lansbury would be so pleased.

Right. The game.

I’m watching. I’m watching. Geez.

11 p.m. So, found a live pro-Yank blog. Would be more fun to read if, you know, we were winning. Pro-Yank blog hopes A-Gonz gets hit with a pitch.

I hope Derek Jeter swings so hard his arm falls off.

Strike.

11:08. Does C.C. remind anyone else of Baloo from the Jungle Book?

You know, but evil?

And stoned?

No?

—-

11:13. Fading fast.

I have reeeeaaalllly got to go to sleep. Think you kids can handle this? You know, without the Carolina cheerleader? Because I have to get up so early…

11:22. This is going to be a looooooooooong game. Google string thingy is so much more fun than this game.

—-

11:23. Yeah. Sleep. Now.

Win. Please?

Do it for the Bruins. They need your inspiration.

—

11:25. Cervelli, your name sounds like a bacterium.

—

11:27. Okay. NOW I’m asleep.

11:28. Well, clearly not NOW. One can’t be asleep when one is saying that one is asleep.

11:29. You get my point, right? I can sleep now?

—

11:30. I canNOT sleep when Curtis Grandersnot is at the plate. Blah.

J-Beck. Please do not let Grandersnot on a base. Please?

Or walk him. Sure. Yeah. Okay.

Time to get mad, Beckster. Time to get mad. Let’s see anger-face. No. Not that. That is NOT anger.

—-

11:35. Okay. I want to hit Alex Rodriguez with a pitch as much as you do, Beckett, but loading the bases… that’s a bit much, don’t you think? Is this one of your show-off moments were you load them up then slam them down?

—

11:37. Oh, thank you. You really had me going, Beckett. I never doubted you. Never. You know. Except that one time in the first inning when you handed Curtis Grandersnot a homerun on a silver fricking platter. You know, that time.

—

11:41. The. God. Of. Walks.

You know. And awesomeness.

11:44. You hit Papi with a pitch and it is on. Remember this, Stanks. You have been warned.

—

Bottom of the fourth. Really sleeping. So. Um. When I wake up. This will be fixed. Better. Yes.

P,S,- I found a reason to hate the Braves. My Dlowe (That’s right Derek Lowe is mine. Much like MY tim Thomas) had a no hitter through like 7 innings. Then he gives up one hit. Those idiot Braves blow his win and then they come back when he can’t get the win.

They have done this to him before. I now call them TDB, Those damn Braves.

I guess you missed the best part. But so did I. I can’t stay up for games on week nights that start at 930 central time. 7 runs in the seventh awesome. And a sweep. And you compared CC to Baloo. That was very awesome! I love it.
